Shikimori’s Not Just a Cutie Vol. 11

Shikimori’s Not Just a Cutie Vol. 11

Shikimori seems like the perfect girlfriend: cute, fun to be around, sweet when she wants to be… but she has a cool dark side that comes out under the right circumstances. And her boyfriend Izumi loves to be around when that happens! A fun and funny high school romance with a sassy twist perfect for fans of Nagatoro-san and Komi Can’t Communicate!

The school trip to Kyoto was a huge success and on the return trip, Izumi gets swept up in his emotions for Shikimori and makes the boldest of moves! After what transpires, things can never be the same between Shikimori and Izumi, except maybe they can? Nerves get whipped up to a fervor when Valentine’s Day comes around. Special chocolates get baked with the hope that they can convey the thoughts and feelings of the givers. Kamiya receives a mountain of chocolates, but whose chocolate does she really care about?
